Stress

• Stress is one of the leading causes of the ocular migraine, so learning new and different ways to relax might be a good idea.
  
  

Menstruation

• Menstruation, either during menstruation or right before, can also trigger an ocular migraine.
  
  

Hunger

• Making sure that you eat regular meals may help ward off an ocular migraine. Hunger is often a trigger to an ocular episode.
  
  

Alcohol

• Since alcohol can increase the frequency of ocular migraines, it might be a good idea to avoid drinking it.
  
  

Caffeine

• Try to avoid caffeine, especially highly sweetened coffee drinks. The caffeine in coffee causes severe ocular migraines.
